While at high school in Caledonia, Ontario Ted was taught wireless by the Army. This training greatly assisted him after joining the Navy in 1942 at HMCS Star in Hamilton, Ontario and once transferred to Naval Head Quarters in Ottawa where they were learning to track German subs. His course was 2 weeks behind and he was unable to go to the wireless station based in Harbour Grace, Newfoundland as scheduled. He was most fortunate because the ship taking the forces there was sunk by a German sub and 132 people were lost. Ted went to the Gander Airport in Newfoundland to help keep track of the bombers going to England who were getting lost. They monitored subs in their spare time. He eventually was transferred to Harbour Grace and spent the next two years helping catch and sink subs faster than the Germans could build them. This was a crucial posting that resulted in useful information being provided to the Navy and armed forces leading to the successful locating and destroying of numerous enemy submarines. He returned home in the spring of 1945 to operate the family restaurant business for his ill father while he recuperated. The Germans surrendered in May 1945 followed by the Japanese and Ted was discharged. He returned to Newfoundland and married his sweetheart Grace Anita Parsons. 6
7 Ted had a long work history involving initially the restaurant and candy making business. He and his family including children Harry and Valerie moved to Guelph, Ontario where he operated a variety store. He moved on to have a successful sales career with Sears Canada and later managed a Home Hardware store in Brantford, Ontario. He retired in 1992 from Roots Home Hardware in Guelph. Ted and his wife relocated to the Niagara Falls, Ontario area where they still reside. Ted is very proud of his two children. Valerie is an Office Manager living in Burlington, Ontario and Harry is a Business Consultant who resides with his wife Sheila in Peterborough, Ontario. Ted has one granddaughter Brooke who is a graduate of the Food and Hospitality Program at the University of Guelph. Ted Vlachos remains a loyal Canadian who served his country with dedication, determination and honour. He sincerely appreciates the special recognition including the British Empire Medal bestowed upon him at the conclusion of the war. VLACHOS. Theodore Harry, V-54941, Tele(SO), RCNVR, BEM~[5.1.46] "This Rating, who was employed at the Harbour Grace Special Wireless Telegraphy Station, was a keen and conscientious operator, whose hard work greatly improved the Station's overall efficiency and served as a fine example for the less experienced operators. Through his outstanding efforts, Naval Service Headquarters was furnished with valuable information which helped keep track of the U-Boats and hasten the war to an end." 7
